Blocked Design Data e. FMRI: “Event” model of block-designs Model “Epoch” model assumes constant neural processes throughout block U 1 U 2 U 3 P 1 P 2 P 3 “Event” model may capture state-item interactions (with longer SOAs) U 1 U 2 U 3 Data P 1 P 2 P 3 Model
Modeling block designs: epochs vs events • Designs can be blocked or intermixed, BUT models for blocked designs can be epoch- or event-related Sustained epoch • Epochs are periods of sustained stimulation (e. g, box-car functions) • Events are impulses (delta-functions) • In SPM 8, all conditions are specified in terms of their 1) onsets and 2) durations … epochs: variable or constant duration … events: zero duration Series of events Delta functions => • Near-identical regressors can be created by 1) sustained epochs, 2) rapid series of events (SOAs<~3 s) “Classic” Boxcar function Convolved with HRF
Epochs vs events • Blocks of trials can be modelled as boxcars or runs of events Rate = 1/4 s Rate = 1/2 s b=3 b=5 b=11 b=9 • BUT: interpretation of the parameter estimates may differ • Consider an experiment presenting words at different rates in different blocks: • An “epoch” model will estimate parameter that increases with rate, because the parameter reflects response per block • An “event” model may estimate parameter that decreases with rate, because the parameter reflects response per word
Disadvantages of intermixed designs 1. Less efficient for detecting effects than are blocked designs (see later…) 2. Some psychological processes have to/may be better blocked (e. g. , if difficult to switch between states, or to reduce surprise effects)
Overview 1. Block/epoch vs. event-related f. MRI 2. (Dis)advantages of ef. MRI 3. GLM: Convolution
BOLD impulse response • Function of blood oxygenation, flow, volume (Buxton et al, 1998) • Peak (max. oxygenation) 4 -6 s poststimulus; baseline after 20 -30 s • Initial undershoot can be observed (Malonek & Grinvald, 1996) Peak Brief Stimulus Undershoot • Similar across V 1, A 1, S 1… • … but possible differences across: other regions (Schacter et al 1997) individuals (Aguirre et al, 1998) Initial Undershoot
BOLD impulse response • Early event-related f. MRI studies used a long Stimulus Onset Asynchrony (SOA) to allow BOLD response to return to baseline • However, overlap between successive responses at short SOAs can be accommodated if the BOLD response is explicitly modeled, particularly if responses are assumed to superpose linearly • Short SOAs are more sensitive; see later Peak Brief Stimulus Undershoot Initial Undershoot

Overview 1. Block/epoch vs. event-related f. MRI 2. (Dis)advantages of ef. MRI 3. GLM: Convolution 4. Temporal Basis Functions
Temporal basis functions
Temporal basis functions • Fourier Set Windowed sines & cosines Any shape (up to frequency limit) Inference via F-test
Temporal basis functions • Finite Impulse Response Mini “timebins” (selective averaging) Any shape (up to bin-width) Inference via F-test
Temporal basis functions • Fourier Set / FIR Any shape (up to frequency limit / bin width) Inference via F-test • Gamma Functions Bounded, asymmetrical (like BOLD) Set of different lags Inference via F-test
Temporal basis functions • Fourier Set / FIR Any shape (up to frequency limit / bin width) Inference via F-test • Gamma Functions Bounded, asymmetrical (like BOLD) Set of different lags Inference via F-test • “Informed” Basis Set Best guess of canonical BOLD responses Variability captured by Taylor expansion “Magnitude” inferences via t-test…?

Temporal basis functions “Informed” Basis Set Canonical Temporal Dispersion (Friston et al. 1998) • Canonical HRF (2 gamma functions) plus Multivariate Taylor expansion in: time (Temporal Derivative) width (Dispersion Derivative) • “Magnitude” inferences via t-test on canonical parameters (providing canonical is a reasonable fit) • “Latency” inferences via tests on ratio of derivative : canonical parameters
Other approaches (e. g. , outside SPM) • Long Stimulus Onset Asychrony (SOA) Can ignore overlap between responses (Cohen et al 1997) … but long SOAs are less sensitive • Fully counterbalanced designs Assume response overlap cancels (Saykin et al 1999) Include fixation trials to “selectively average” response even at short SOA (Dale & Buckner, 1997) … but often unbalanced, e. g. when events defined by subject • Define HRF from pilot scan on each subject May capture inter-subject variability (Zarahn et al, 1997) … but not interregional variability • Numerical fitting of highly parametrised response functions Separate estimate of magnitude, latency, duration (Kruggel et al 1999) … but computationally expensive for every voxel
Which temporal basis set? In this example (rapid motor response to faces, Henson et al, 2001)… Canonical + Temporal + Dispersion + FIR … canonical + temporal + dispersion derivatives appear sufficient to capture most activity … may not be true for more complex trials (e. g. stimulus-prolonged delay (>~2 s)-response) … but then such trials better modelled with separate neural components (i. e. , activity no longer delta function) + constrained HRF (Zarahn, 1999)

Timing issues: Sampling • Typical TR for 60 slice EPI at 3 mm spacing is ~ 4 s Scans TR=4 s
Timing issues: Sampling • Typical TR for 60 slice EPI at 3 mm spacing is ~ 4 s • Sampling at [0, 4, 8, 12…] poststimulus may miss peak signal Scans TR=4 s Stimulus (synchronous) SOA=8 s Sampling rate=4 s
Timing issues: Sampling • Typical TR for 60 slice EPI at 3 mm spacing is ~ 4 s • Sampling at [0, 4, 8, 12…] poststimulus may miss peak signal Scans TR=4 s Stimulus (asynchronous) SOA=6 s • Higher effective sampling by: 1. Asynchrony e. g. , SOA=1. 5 TR Sampling rate=2 s

Asynchrony e. g. , SOA=1. 5 TR 2. Random Jitter e, g. , SOA=(2± 0. 5)TR Sampling rate=2 s

Timing issues: Slice-Timing T 1 = 0 s T=16, TR=2 s T 0=16 T 0=9 o T 16 = 2 s o 0 Scan 1 x 2 x 3
Timing issues: Slice-timing • “Slice-timing Problem”: Slices acquired at different times, yet model is the same for all slices different results (using canonical HRF) for different reference slices (slightly less problematic if middle slice is selected as reference, and with short TRs) Bottom Slice Top Slice TR=3 s SPM{t} Interpolated • Solutions: 1. Temporal interpolation of data … but less good for longer TRs SPM{t} Derivative 2. More general basis set (e. g. , with temporal derivatives) … but inferences via F-test SPM{F}

Design Efficiency • HRF can be viewed as a filter (Josephs & Henson, 1999) • We want to maximise the signal passed by this filter • Dominant frequency of canonical HRF is ~0. 04 Hz The most efficient design is a sinusoidal modulation of neural activity with period ~24 s • (e. g. , boxcar with 12 s on/ 12 s off)
Sinusoidal modulation, f = 1/33 s Stimulus (“Neural”) HRF Predicted Data = = A very “efficient” design!
Blocked, epoch = 20 s Stimulus (“Neural”) HRF Predicted Data = = Blocked-epoch (with small SOA) quite “efficient”
Blocked (80 s), SOAmin=4 s, highpass filter = 1/120 s Stimulus (“Neural”) HRF Predicted Data = “Effective HRF” (after highpass filtering) (Josephs & Henson, 1999) = Very ineffective: Don’t have long (>60 s) blocks!
Randomised, SOAmin=4 s, highpass filter = 1/120 s Stimulus (“Neural”) HRF Predicted Data = = Randomised design spreads power over frequencies
Design efficiency • T-statistic for a given contrast: T = c. Tb / var(c. Tb) • For maximum T, we want minimum standard error of Tb)) maximum precision contrast estimates (var(c ( • Var(c. Tb) = sqrt( 2 c. T(XTX)-1 c) (i. i. d) • If we assume that noise variance ( ( 2) is unaffected by changes in X, then our precision for given parameters is proportional to the design efficiency: e(c, X) = �{ c. T (XTX)-1 c }-1 We can influence e (a priori) by the spacing and sequencing of epochs/events in our design matrix e is specific for a given contrast!
Design efficiency: Trial spacing • Design parametrised by: SOAmin Minimum SOA p(t) Probability of event at each SOAmin
Design efficiency: Trial spacing • Design parametrised by: SOAmin Minimum SOA p(t) Probability of event at each SOAmin • Deterministic p(t)=1 iff t=n. SOAmin
Design efficiency: Trial spacing • Design parametrised by: SOAmin Minimum SOA p(t) Probability of event at each SOAmin • Deterministic p(t)=1 iff t=n. SOAmin • Stationary stochastic p(t)=constant<1
Design efficiency: Trial spacing • Design parametrised by: SOAmin Minimum SOA p(t) Probability of event at each SOAmin • Deterministic p(t)=1 iff t=n. SOAmin • Stationary stochastic p(t)=constant • Dynamic stochastic p(t) varies (e. g. , blocked) Blocked designs most efficient! (with small SOAmin)
Design efficiency: Trial spacing • However, block designs are often not advisable due to interpretative difficulties (see before) e • Event trains may then be constructed by modulating the event probabilities in a dynamic stochastic fashion • This can result in intermediate levels of efficiency 3 sessions with 128 scans Faces, scrambled faces SOA always 2. 97 s Cycle length 24 s
Design efficiency: Trial sequencing • Design parametrised by: SOAmin Minimum SOA pi(h) Probability of event-type i given history h of last m events • With n event-types pi(h) is a n x n Transition Matrix Differential Effect (A-B) Common Effect (A+B) • Example: Randomised AB A 0. 5 B 0. 5 => ABBBABAAA. . . 4 s smoothing; 1/60 s highpass filtering
Design efficiency: Trial sequencing • Example: Alternating AB A 0 1 B 1 0 => ABABAB. . . Permuted (A-B) Alternating (A-B) • Example: Permuted AB AA AB BA BB A 0 0. 5 1 B 1 0. 5 0 => ABBAABABABBA. . . 4 s smoothing; 1/60 s highpass filtering
Design efficiency: Trial sequencing • Example: Null events A B A 0. 33 B 0. 33 => AB-BAA--B---ABB. . . • Efficient for differential and main effects at short SOA Null Events (A-B) Null Events (A+B) • Equivalent to stochastic SOA (Null Event like third unmodelled eventtype) 4 s smoothing; 1/60 s highpass filtering
Design efficiency: Conclusions • Optimal design for one contrast may not be optimal for another • Blocked designs generally most efficient (with short SOAs, given optimal block length is not exceeded) • However, psychological efficiency often dictates intermixed designs, and often also sets limits on SOAs • With randomised designs, optimal SOA for differential effect (A-B) is minimal SOA (>2 seconds, and assuming no saturation), whereas optimal SOA for main effect (A+B) is 16 -20 s • Inclusion of null events improves efficiency for main effect at short SOAs (at cost of efficiency for differential effects) • If order constrained, intermediate SOAs (5 -20 s) can be optimal • If SOA constrained, pseudorandomised designs can be optimal (but may introduce context-sensitivity)
